[In Vitro]

Kynuramine (dihydrobromide) 在体外抑制突触前和突触后 α-肾上腺素受体[2]。 Kynuramine 已被证明是狗脑动脉血清素受体的部分激动剂[2]。 Kynuramine (20 μg/mL) 经常导致回肠轻微收缩，但未能改变胆碱能刺激的抽搐反应[2]。

[In Vivo]

Kynuramine (dihydrobromide) (0.064、0.32、1.6 或 8 μg；脑室内；单剂量) 促进雌激素激发的去卵巢大鼠前凸行为[3]。 Kynuramine (1.25、2.5 和 5.0 mg/kg；静脉注射；单剂量) 可增加大鼠的心率和血压[4]。 Animal Model: Female rats[3]. Dosage: 0.064-8 μg. Administration: Intraventricular injection; single does. Result: Produced facilitation of lordosis behavior. Animal Model: Male rats (about 200g)[4]. Dosage: 1.25-5.0 mg/kg. Administration: Intravenous injection; single does. Result: Promoted heart rate and blood pressure.
